We read fantasy to regain lost colors, taste spices and hear the siren song. There is something ancient and true about fantasy that touches deep chords in our souls.

Fantasy speaks to a child deep within us who dreams of hunting in the woods of the night, feasting at the foot of the mountains, and finding a love that will last forever somewhere south of Oz and north of Shangri-La.
George Martin

The book has always been for me an adviser, a comforter, eloquent and calm, and I did not want to exhaust its benefits, saving them for the most important occasions.
George Sand

True, it is strange that if you read a book several times, it becomes much thicker? As if every time you read something is left between the pages. Feelings, thoughts, sounds, smells… And when you leaf through the book again many years later, you find yourself there - a little younger, a little different than now, as if the book has kept you between the pages, like a dried flower - both familiar and alien ...
Cornelia Funke "Inkblood"

Frederic Begbeder

He who reads a lot and walks a lot sees a lot and knows a lot.

Books are just one of the receptacles where we store what we are afraid to forget. There is no mystery in them, no magic. The magic is only in what they say, in how they sew the pieces of the universe together into a single whole.
Ray Bradbury

The golden shelf is the one that winds up exclusively for your favorite books. I have been dreaming about this for a long time - to start a golden shelf. This is the shelf on which only favorite books are placed. In my dreams, it is a shelf that is drawn to me - not a closet at all, but one shelf, one, so to speak, floor of the closet.
Yuri Olesha "Not a day without a line"

The school should teach not what to read, but how. Especially today, when the 21st century has offered the book such a seductive set of alternatives that reading can degenerate into an aristocratic hobby like horse riding or ballroom dancing.
Alexander Genis "Reading Lessons. Scribe's Kamasutra"

The main thing is that real literature can exist only where it is made not by dutiful and trustworthy officials, but by madmen, hermits, heretics, dreamers, rebels, skeptics.
Evgeny Zamyatin. "I'm afraid"

Heaven is a place where the library is open twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. No... eight days a week.
Alan Bradley

If there were no books in the world, I would have despaired long ago.
Arthur Schopenhauer

Most of us cannot go everywhere, talk to everyone, visit all the cities in the world. We don't have the time, or the money, or that many friends. Everything you are looking for exists in the world, but a simple person can only see one hundredth with his own eyes, and he will know the remaining ninety-nine percent through a book.
Ray Bradbury Fahrenheit 451

Umberto Eco: For the person who, coming to me for the first time, discovers my impressive library and finds nothing better than to ask "Have you read all this?" I have prepared several answers. One of my friends usually throws "And even more, even more." I have two answers. First: "No. These are just the books I have to read next week. Those that I have already read are kept at the university.” The second answer is “I have not read any of these books. Why else should I keep them?”

It's nice to admit that a library doesn't have to be made up of books we've read or will read someday. These are books that we can read. Or you could read. Even if we never open them.
Jean-Claude Career, Umberto Eco "Don't hope to get rid of books!"

Do speed readers really get a taste of what they read?
Jean-Claude Career, Umberto Eco "Don't hope to get rid of books!"

Good friends, good books, and a sleeping conscience—this is the ideal life.
Mark Twain, Notebooks

There is a deeper meaning in the fairy tales told to me in my childhood than in the truth taught by life.
Friedrich Schiller

Reading helps tremendously, and books are good company, if you take the most suitable ones.
Louisa May Alcott

Whatever you do, whatever you do, you will always need a smart and faithful assistant - a book.
Samuil Marshak

Take away my books and I will despair.
Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights

Nothing can replace a book. Despite the latest discoveries, new types of information preservation, we will not rush to part with the book.
Dmitry Likhachev

A book is not subject to time if the advancing time absorbs it.
Thomas Mann

The reader should notice the details and admire them. The cold light of generalization is good, but only after all the little things have been carefully collected in the sunlight. To start with a ready-made generalization means to start at the wrong end, to move away from the book without even beginning to understand it. What could be more boring and unfair to the author than, say, taking on Madame Bovary, knowing in advance that the bourgeoisie is denounced in this book. It must always be remembered that in any In the arts, a new world has been recreated, and our main task is to get to know this world in as much detail as possible, which is opening up to us for the first time and in no way directly connected with those worlds that we knew before. This world needs to be studied in detail - then and only then start thinking about its connections with other worlds, other areas of knowledge.
Vladimir Nabokov

Real life is also a story, but much more complex. It also has a beginning, a middle and an end. A person lives by the same rules ... Only there are many more of them. Each has a story and plot. Everyone has to go their own way. Some go far and come back empty-handed. And the other remains in place and becomes richer than all. Some fairy tales have a moral, others have no meaning. There are funny and sad stories. The world is a library, and there is not a single similar book in it.
Chris Wooding "Poison"

What kind of person you become will be determined by two factors: the people you associate with and the books you read.
Robin Sharma

Reading books is not a way to escape from life, books provide the key to understanding it. Key to reality.
Sebastian Faulks

The first book that hits the heart is like first love.
O. D. Forsh

The one who reads books is never bored.
Irvine Welsh "Acid House"

Everywhere I searched for peace, and in only one place did I find it - in the corner, with a book.
Umberto Eco

The smell of books is a spicy smell reminiscent of a fairy tale.
Stephen King

I am sure that nothing will replace the book in the future, just as nothing could replace it in the past.
Isaac Asimov

Books can have power over people, right? It happens that you walk through a bookstore, and some book just by itself appears in your hands. Sometimes what is written inside turns your life around, and sometimes you don't even need to read it.
It's nice to just have it in the house. Many of these books have never been opened at all. Our daughter wonders why we buy books we don't even read. It's like asking a person who lives alone why he got a cat. For the company, of course.
Sarah Edison Allen "Sugar Queen"

“Life is lost by the one who has not prepared himself for old age. And old age is not age, but first of all, the loss of muscle tissue. For many, it begins at the age of 20. And the less a person monitors his bodily form, the worse the state of the psyche, the negative emotions dominate him more. I have a semi-joking formula: give youth and youth to your homeland, and leave old age to yourself. So, I say: do not leave illness to yourself. Enter old age as if into joy. When you have done everything and you can just enjoy life. That's when it's real old age, which brings satisfaction. Everyone needs a person, he shares his experience, and does not complain about endless sores. Pain always interferes with life "

♦ If a person close to you has pain in his heart, and emptiness in his soul...

People tend to make mistakes
People tend to get hurt
With a naked heart on a naked stone,
And then the wound remains
The scar remains heavy
And no love. Not a gram.
Man freezes silently
Starts to piss people off
And an icy wolf longing
Knocking at his door in the middle of the night.
He will not fall asleep again until dawn,
Will crumple cigarettes in the fingers.
You'll be waiting for an answer
To invented questions.
He won't say a word now
All he is in the thoughts of the distant somewhere.
Don't judge him harshly
Don't reproach him for it.
Do not be overly cheerful with him,
Do not teach him patience -
All the examples you know
They will be forgotten, unfortunately.
He was deafened by the excruciating pain,
From the furry misfortune of the animal.
He is longing - gray-haired from salt -
Met on a long road.
He froze. Forever and ever? Who knows!
And there seems to be no way out
But one day he will thaw,
As nature told him.
Gradually changing colors
Imperceptibly changing rhythms
From the cold season of January
In the blue serenity of May.
You see - snakes change their skin,
You see - a bird changes feathers.
It's happiness that pain can't
In a person forever nest.
He will wake up early one day
Will break the silence like dough.
Where the wound used to hurt
It will just be a smooth place.
And then through the city to the summer
Running down the main street
Man smiles at the light
And embrace him as an equal. (Sergey Ostrovoy)

We wish you to be happy and live in accordance with these little stories!

And finally, a few more good thoughts, quotes, tips about life and about life:

♦ "The essence of this lifestyle is not to build endless imaginary alternative scenarios of events happening to us and not to produce endless "could be ...", "if it were", "it's a pity not" and "it would be more correct ". Instead, you should try to get the most out of what is here and now" Writer Vladimir Yakovlev

♦ "When you feel bad, find someone who is even worse and help him. You will feel better." How simple it sounds! But why go and help someone if I feel bad?
The wife left, the children forgot, they were kicked out of work - life is crumbling! Everything is bad. But if you find a person who needs your help, if he is worse off than you, your troubles will go aside. Dealing with the pain and problems of another person, you switch and forget about your difficulties and hardships.
Remember: negative emotions accumulate, positive ones do not. Helping others gives you positive emotions. You helped, you see: your help was needed. You could, you took part in someone else's fate. When you feel bad - find someone who is even worse, and help him - you will feel better.

♦ "Live in the present and use it to shape your future to your liking. If you don't change now, the future won't get better. If you're passive and inactive, who will help you? Ultimately, it's all up to you. If circumstances do not indulge you, do not give up, but plan, plan and plan again. Do everything in your power, and luck will come to you - it comes to everyone, to everyone who wants it. This is the law of life. And yet, do not delay for tomorrow what you can do today, God help you"

♦ "The past is already over, this thought must be accepted. There is only the present and the future that we are creating now. Therefore, the past must be understood, accepted and forgiven. Release your past from the present back to the past, there is its place" Psychologist Andrey Kurpatov (Bestseller "Happy on my own")

♦ "Just retire and list everything that you have, what you believe, remember everyone you loved and love. And remember also that there is always a huge boundless sky and the sun above your head, however, sometimes it is hidden from us by clouds, but it's temporary, and it's still there, even if you can't see it now. Think about what you have, and then you will understand what you need" Psychologist Andrey Kurpatov (Bestseller "Happy on my own")

♦ "Maybe you demand the fulfillment of your desires from life? But these requirements are also absurd, we can only rely on ourselves and do what depends on us, and the result is always a combination of many circumstances, the requirements here are meaningless. And finally , the third area where your demands can lead to unnecessary problems: maybe you are very demanding of yourself? You need to rely on yourself, not demand " Psychologist Andrey Kurpatov (Bestseller "Happy on my own")

♦ "Remember - fear loves those who look into the future instead of leaning on the present. Fear loves those who feed on dreams instead of doing what it can do under the conditions that exist at the moment. So don't wait for the situation to change, then you will no longer be able to do what you can do now.If you constantly behave in this way, then you will never, I emphasize, never really do anything!" Psychologist Andrey Kurpatov

♦ "We are all human, and bad things happen to people. When something bad happens to you, it only proves that you are alive, because as long as you live, bad things will happen to you. Stop thinking that you are the chosen one, to whom nothing bad can happen. There are no such people, and even if they existed, who would want to communicate with them? They would be so boring. What would you talk about with them? How wonderful everything is in their lives? And would you like to hit them?"

♦ "Learn to downplay, not exaggerate your problems. For our psyche, which itself does not understand anything in this matter, it is better to hear that the problem is trifling than gigantic. And instead of thinking: "My life does not make sense" - think, "Your problems don't have it. If we can devalue our own lives so easily, why don't we redirect our accusatory sting and devalue the problems that devalue our lives?"

♦ "Not only does life affect you, but you also affect life. So consider that you were just dealt bad cards. It happens. Take the cards, shuffle them and deal yourself. It's your responsibility. Don't wait. Don't whine. "Good things don't just happen. You have to make them happen. Think about how you can start living the way you've always wanted to. If there aren't many bad things happening in your life, then there isn't much going on at all." Larry Winget ("Stop whining, keep your head up!")

♦ "This is a variant of the well-known formula that the doctor Emile Coué developed for his patients: "EVERY DAY, ALWAYS AND IN EVERYTHING, MY BUSINESS GOES BETTER AND BETTER." Repeat this phrase aloud fifty times in the morning and evening, and during the day - as much as you can. The more often you repeat it, the stronger will be its effect on you" Fisher Mark ("Millionaire's Secret")

♦ "Never forget that life is an opportunity. This thesis may seem like a philosophical refinement, but it's true. When one thing doesn't work out for us, another one will definitely work out. As the song sang, "I'm not lucky in death, lucky in love". On all fronts without exception, life never loses. And wisdom consists in always being on the front on which the troops go on the offensive. The ability to switch is a great and necessary skill for us. If somewhere or in something you are chronically unlucky, do something else. You yourself will not notice how life is getting better on the front you left!" Psychologist Andrey Kurpatov ("5 saving steps from depression")

♦ Don't forget your family. Your parents are the only people who love you unconditionally, simply because you are. Communicate with them more often - this will not only give you energy for life and work. When dear people leave this world, they will live in your memories. Let these memories be more.

♦ Complaining about life is a waste of time. Build a conversation constructively, talk about something interesting. Your problems are not interesting to others, and getting useful information during a conversation is much more valuable than stingy words of sympathy.

♦ There is enough grief in the world; don't exaggerate it. If you can, BE GOOD, but you can't, or you're going through hard times, then at least try not to be a complete nerd.

♦ Life is an unknown road, immeasurable length. Some traveler walks for a long time, for whom it is short. The length of the road, God only knows, sending us on a worldly path, and a person walking does not know the length of his earthly life.

♦ Remember - everything passes and is constantly changing. What seems important now may turn out to be meaningless after a while. Stop focusing on problems, do something useful.

♦ "You can wait until things calm down. When the kids are older, things will get better at work, when the economy picks up, the weather gets better, your back stops hurting...
The fact is that people who are different from you and me never wait for the time to come. They know this will never happen.
Instead, they take risks and take action, even when they have no time to sleep, they have no money, they are hungry, their house is not cleaned, and it is snowing in the yard. Whenever it happens. Because the time comes every day." Seth Godin

♦ Computers eventually break down, people die, relationships fail… The best thing we can do is take a deep breath and reboot.
